The Regional Ocean Modeling System (ROMS) is employed to create a three-dimensional numerical model of the summer circulation in the Prydz Bay region, Antarctica. Consistent with the currents measured using an underway acoustic Doppler current profiler during a Chinese cruise, the simulated current...
